One Kentucky restaurant received some high honors by finding itself on the New York Times' 50 Best Restaurants in the United States list.

Kentucky has no shortage of great restaurants that have been open for years. These restaurants have become staples in that area where people must go whenever they are in town. They are restaurants that can even become bucket-list places to dine at. Whether it be comfort food, burgers, fried chicken, seafood, Italian, Mexican, steakhouses, or any other type of restaurant, there are certain places that stand out among the rest. Out of all of the possibilities, it can be somewhat difficult to decide where you want to go to eat. If all else fails, you could try one Kentucky restaurant that was just named one of the best in the country.

The New York Times just released their list of the 50 Best Restaurants in the United States. The list is based on unannounced visits to establish their opinions. Out of all 50 restaurants on the list, only one can be found in Kentucky. A restaurant in Louisville's Germantown neighborhood received this national honor for its food and drinks.
